Canadian History: The Dieppe Debacle of World War II. This paper discusses how the Canadian-led raid on Dieppe, France, in August 1942 is described as the 'largest raid in history'; and is also acknowledged how tactically, it was almost a complete failure. Significantly, the contentious history of this raid resides in its losses of human life, in that it was, without question, a slaughtering of Canadian soldiers who had been launched into an unbeatable raid attempt. So, how do Canadians make sense of this, a great raid, a disastrous raid, a slaughtering of some sacrificial lambs in the name of politics, or a genuine attempt that failed, and from which many valuable lessons were learned about future raiding efforts against the Germans. 6 pgs. 8 f/c. 3b.
